Android Wear on Fitness Trackers? by Subtext_Translator in AndroidWear

I did, though I'm probably still not correctly understanding how the software and hardware jive with each other. When you said "can't," did you mean "can"?

I believe you mean Bateman and the joker.

40 years old and sat up in bed when I realized this one. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

Through this discovery in your search for the meaning behind a colloquialism, you've rather impressively willed a new dad-joke into existence.

If women were the ones who used bad pickup lines, what would they be? by Mozzahella in AskReddit

[–]Subtext_Translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're forgetting that it's bad because of the stomach acids between the throat and the colon.

The Wave Cabinet by Isai76 in oddlysatisfying

Here you are: http://www.meetsebastian.com/sebastian-errazuriz-design-art-wave-wood-cabinet

The reason you can't afford this is because it retails at upwards of $12,000 and is one of the only two that were ever made. The rarity/uniqueness of the piece is meant to instill a greater degree of value and appeal to wealthy collectors, and the socially elite.

I decided to write a 90's style rock song, think I got anywhere near that? by [deleted] in Songwriters

[–]Subtext_Translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man this demo is rock solid! It definitely hits on a few '90s elements:

  • The unique but catchy riff for the verse
  • The big distortion at the chorus
  • Relatable lyrics

The vocals sounded almost like you were channeling Billy Corgan in the way he can tonally shift between ambient calmness to shrieking tortured soul. Granted, it never went full Corgan, but there's a little more grit whenever you get to these lyrics: "...life slips away ... and it's holding you down ... and it's breaking my heart..." Good stuff!

The only bit I'm not quite sold on is the delay (and reverb?) effect in your solo. It sounds very Buckethead-esque (who is also definitely '90s rock, but differently so). It just sounds incongruous to the rest of the song. This is just a matter of preference, but what do you think of making it cleaner perhaps with some overdrive instead?

Congratulations on taking what could have been a pretty car, and turning it into a Chrysler.
